DEA CSOS Pilot Conference Call October 31, 2002
Agenda • Pilot Review: Pilot Organization and Scope • Phase III Review • Phase III Status • Phase III: Accomplished Milestones • Phase III: Team Status/Project Plans • Phase III: Work in Progress/Current Issues • Phase III: Test Planning • Phase III: Suggested Test Scenarios • Phase III: Sample Test Plan • Phase III: Post Test Analysis • Phase III: Schedule • Phase III: Next Steps… • Phase III: Questions…
Phase III Review: Development Options: • Option One: Work with vendor/existing infrastructure • Advantages: • Leverages existing infrastructure and tools – quicker time from test to implementation • ID gaps in current implementation • Disadvantages: • Availability of vendor software? • Option Two: Develop own code to generate or receive/validate 850. • Advantages: • Some code available that can be “tweaked” • Disadvantages: • Not working with existing infrastructure – may not get good idea of implementation costs • Option Three: Hybrid
Phase III Review: Development Approach • Form trading teams (purchaser/supplier and, possibly,vendors) • Select process areas to work with partner • Team A: Purchaser: • Test Objective 1: Key Exchange Process • Test Objective 2: E-222 Generation Process • Test Objective 3: Transmission Process • Test Objective 6: Receiving Process • Team B: Supplier: • Test Objective 4: E-222 Receipt Process • Test Objective 5: Order Validation Process
Phase III Status: Accomplished Milestones • Milestones: • 850 Transaction Sets Worksheets • 850 committee decision on signature approach (external to orders vs. wrapped around orders) • Future Process Flow Draft • HDMA Survey to determine platforms planned and presently in use • Pilot participants established trading partnerships/roles for Phase III testing, developed “project plan” with intended processes. • Work in Progress: • Develop signed transaction to test digital certificate/processes
Phase III Status:Work in Progress/Current Issues • Work In Progress: • Development of application to test signed 850 transaction and selected processes. • Issues: • Vendor software availability? • FIPS certification? Not necessary for pilot purposes. • Need time extension to complete development? • Development/Integration complete – 11/01 • Industry Test Plan - 11/08 • Testing complete – 12/13 • Scale back on development plans to accommodate fewer processes? • Send email to mleary@pec.com with estimated % of development complete and estimate of time extension needed.
Phase III: Test Planning • Testing should focus on technology, process flows, and Anticipated Standards. • Each team will select and develop their own tests, based on their available resources. • After development, teams will submit a test plan identifying the factors and scenarios that they were able to test – and their results. Sue from Abbott has made available a sample test plan that you can add to/subtract from. • Results will be compiled into a “Gap Analysis” and be used to determine technological limitations and development costs in terms of effort and adoption expectations.
Phase III Test Planning: Suggested Test Scenarios (1/4) • Processes 2.0/3.0 Key Exchange/Trading Partner Setup Scenarios: • Certificate (or Cert S/N) is received by trading partner (supplier)? • Certificate is correctly imported into PKI application? • Received certificate is properly validated by supplier? • Supplier is able to compare the extension data with the company’s back-end database and store the certificate?
Phase III Test Planning: Suggested Test Scenarios (2/4) • Process 4.0 Ordering Initiation/Transmission Scenarios: • Do the orders contain the elements required by DEA? • Is each process step being satisfied successfully? • Is signing activation controlled exclusively by the purchaser? • Can the purchaser sign an 850? • Is the desktop setup to employ a 10-minute inactivity timeout? • Is the system clearing the private key from system memory on exit? • Are signed orders being saved for archival? • Can the purchaser successfully transmit a signed 850 to a supplier? • Is the signing system time within 5 minutes of a trusted time source?
Phase III Test Planning:Suggested Test Scenarios (3/4) • Process 5.0 Order Authentication Scenarios: • Is extension information in the certificate being validated (shipping, registrant information)? • Is the order integrity being checked (not modified since signed)? • Is each order being checked against a current CRL? • Is the received order being archived after validation? • Process 6.0 Order Fulfillment Scenarios: • Line items in order validated against schedules in certificate? • Order information has been archived for CSOS?
Phase III Test Planning: Suggested Test Scenarios (4/4) • Error-handling (exception processing) Scenarios: • Did the certificate pass the integrity check on the hash? • Subsequent retransmission of order upon failure of hash? • Does the system properly validate the certificate/order? • Are expired certificates rejected? • Are revoked certificates rejected? • Are orders for a substance not authorized on the certificate rejected? • If an order has been signed by an invalid CA – is it properly detected? • If transmission is interrupted is the order rolled-back? • Test certificates have been created and are on the CSOS Pilot Web site to execute error-handling test scenarios.
Phase III: Post-Test Analysis • Completed test plan data to be compiled: • Anticipated Standards – determine impact to anticipated standards • Interoperability (working across platforms) – Gap analysis – what vendors will be “ready” to play by next October? FIPS-certified? • Cost – How much effort/resources will it take to modify/develop systems to be ready by October? • Provide “lessons-learned” to industry hoping to engage in CSOS.
Phase III: Next Steps… • All “Purchasers” need certificates – contact Margaret Leary at (703) 679-3086 if you do not have one. • Vendors may use sample certificate on CSOS Web site (can be emailed to them by a participant). • “Bad” test certificates placed on CSOS Web site for testing purposes. • Begin Phase IV – Reporting planning – coordinate with ARCOS
